Per haps it might have been a little before. Certain it was that I did not care to go away out west for that occasion and reflected that ho would not at this time be able to take umbrage at the sight. The very thought of his great barulike old bouse standing in the midst of great bleak pastures filled with ferocious cat tle and bounded by wind twisted dra /s gave me a spell of the horrors. Low Uncle Henry (I ought to call him by that name now he’s dead) ever made such a great fortune out there I never could understand, except that it was by stock raising. Well, he was gone now, and all of his thousands could come into civilized use. They were all left to my cousin Charlie, his only child. Undo Henry had been a widower for so many years that I cannot picture any time when he could have been under a woman’s influence. No need to say that life for Charlie bad been barren of any thing like pleasure unless helping ac cumulate money could be called pleas ure. I believe mankind does consider it such, but womankind takes another view of the matter. Charlie was a most comfortable sort of boy, and for his sake I had spent some little time every other year in the far west in order that tho boy might have an idea of what woman is like. Now ho was in full pos session of that immense fortune, and I must seo to it that he bad a future that should recompense for such a past. Just 2- ho was and not a bad looking fel low after I hud helped him into the right sort of clothes. The thing was, of course, to marry him to one of my friends and so put tho money where we all might have a little comfort from it. If I have one trait of which I am just ly proud, it is my ability to manage, and I determined that this country cousin of mine should marry one of our most attractive girls. “ We’ll go into tho country this sum mer, Alfred,” I said to my husband* ‘and take a few people for Charlie to meet. Ho will bo all right in the coun try, but I must confess ho must serve a full probation before I undertake a town season with him. I hope I may marry him before then.” “To some one else, I presume. May j ask whom?” “I sliall invito Mao Hatherell.” Alfred drew a long breath. “You aim high for tho young galoot.” “Well, I would love to have Mao for a cousin. Shu is the sweetest girl I know.” “No doubt Charlie will think so, too, but Miss Mao is one of the handsomest young ladies in the city, aside from her music. She thinks she could go on the stage, if she wanted to, and stagestruck girls aro hard to catch.” "No money could hire Mao to go on the stage,” I responded, all the more emphatically because 1 fear I am not in tho right. “Of course not, since she has money enough auyway, tut there are other considerations. Any one else?” “That pretty little Carroll Church ill.” “You aro all right there. She will have to marry money, and Charlie will have a chance, if he doesn’t fall in love with Mao, which he is certain to do. Will you take Alice and Frank?” The last named are unengaged couple who go with us everywhere; so, of course, that is understood. Now comes the question I am expecting from my worthy husband: “Will there bo any one I can enjoy myself with?” I know well enough whom he wants, and since it is going to he a little more expensive before I am through with it than lie now knows, and also because I am wise enough to know that only a foolish woman will attempt to avoid tho lady her husband openly admires, I humor him and say: “I shall surely ask Constance." “Will she come, do you think?” His luterc 1 . is lively enough now. “I happen to know that she wants just such a quiet little time this sum mer. She is tired of going places.” "I'd ask her right away before any one else does, if I were you,” and I know very well Alfred won’t let the matter rest until it is settled. Constance Merrick was a friend of mine when I was a girl, but if one has every reason to suspect that she refused the very man I married it is not a pleas ant reflection, even after I have been married to him nine years and over and she is still free. (Free is a better word than single as applied to h<#"tai|j%igk I wrote that first.) If ^e en joys freedom, it is t LJ^No one ever thinks of how } jffpast :10, if they knew of it, although year after year she lias been the principal person age in our social circle. There is noth ing handsome about her, except that wonderful yellow red hair of hers. But xho is young with a Cleopatra kind of youth and interesting beyond any wom an I ever saw. fcjbe has no especial ao- umiplibhuieuts, only that knack of in teresting every man, woman or child upon w bom she cures to spend her time. She likes married men. She says it is because they can't take it into their heads to uiniry her, and I believe her when she says it, for she has refused every mail who ever did aspire to such a tiling, and 1 don't doubt that they are legion. 1 say u’’ • of her honestly, •ml yet I don't . even fbough I like her company. Mu young girls who are not so sma> , who confide in me and tell me I i iu the dearest litjtlo woman on earth, girls like Mao, Alice and Carroll. My inunogemeut is always perfect. I'hurcfore wo had just tho people 1 want ed and just I be charming little country place. (Charlie helped with tho rent.) Charlie was indeed quite superior to what I bud expected of him. They con sidered hid loud way of laughing so realistic. His ruddy features were a pleasant change from the other young men He was just bashful enough to give him an individuality. That is, ho could talk well enough to the entire lot of ladies, but with one alone he was tongue tied, and ho would rather that Alfred turned Mao’s music for her. Before two weeks passed Mae said to me, “I think young men from the west arc far more interesting than those one meets here. ” In th< excess of my joy I put both bauds on her shoulders and looked right into her eyes. “Do you i really mean that, dear?” and she pushed mo away in a pit ffully vexed manner, i but admitted time of course she did. My path was clear. 1 must help that inexperienced youth to draw in tho | prize he had 1 coked. It, was two days before I got a chance to do it. I noticed in tho meantime that in his bashfulness lie dared not attach himself to any of i the ladies except Constance. This bad ' escaped my attention before, but she | could no doubt draw out the best there J was in him and surely she was very I patient with him, allowing him to l usurp Alfred on several occasions, | which I felt to be self denial on her part. “Are you going to drive to the vil lage with Constance?” I hailed that worthy on his way to the stables. “Guess not,” he replied shortly. “She and Charlie aro going on their wheels. He’s gone in now to put on his suit.” Up to Charlie’s room I rushed, catch- | ing sight of his coattails as I turned the stairs. Calling him to wait a moment I hurried into his room before he had time to repress mo. “There, now, I have never a chance to seo yon a moment unless I scheme for it. I want to talk to you. Yondou’t want to change your suit anyway. I’ve something better on hand for you this evening than cycling with Miss Mer rick. ” “Couldn’t possibly have anything better, coz.,” ho said, diving into the closet and bringing out bis suit. “Yes I have too. Now put thoso things down and don’t hurry me.” “But MissMerirck will bo waiting.” “Oh, no, Constance won’t care. She would much rather ride with Alfred, , and I have something lovely to tell you about Mac.” “Bother Mael What do I want to know about her?” “Why, Charlie, I am surprised at you.” “I don’t know why you should be, when I have an engagement with an other young lady. I don’t care any thing about Mae, anyway.” “ You don't?” “Certainly not if there is a chance for spending an hour with Miss Mer rick, “and Charlie actually kicked oil his shoes and wont into the closet again i after his tans. “Cousin Charles, ” I said in alarm, j “what do you mean? Constance Merrick ! is older than I am, a good ten years older than you.” Charlie dropped his shoes. “This is the first time I ever heard you allude to your age in such a way. Mate, I supposed you were about two years younger than myself.” “You are making fun, of course. She is, though.” “If she wore one of Noah’s daugh ters, I must still say 1 prefer a bicycle ride in her company to anything that you may hatch up for this evening, and you really must excuse me while I get ready.” “I will not go one step until you tell me. Are yon in love with Constance Merrick?” H6 bent down and tied his shoestring and looked up with blushes enough for a girl and said gently: “Don’t ask so many questions, Mat- tie.” And then ho went into the closet and shut tho door. I knew if I didn’t want him to smother in there I must j give up and go down stairs again. Late that night I took Alfred to task I in words full of meaning: “Why J haven’t you kept Constance out of Char lie’s way? The young greenhorn is in love with her.” “Good enough. Suppose it’ll make a match?” I cannot hear Alfred when he talks like that. “As if Constance would marry the king and all his courtiers I” “I should hope not,” said that pro voking man, “though I doubt not she 1 sings better in a chorus choir than a i duet.” There is nothing to do with such a ; stupid man but let him go to sleep, but | in tho morning my mind was made up. I would send for Laurance Hadmoro. It was the only way out of the difficulty. Mr. Itadmore was the one man that it was thought possible Constance might marry. The two were just made for each other. Every one realized it. He was tho grandest looking man I ever saw, although his features were posi tively ugly, with that great Roman nose and sharp gray eyes. It wus hie shoulders and the way he carried his I head that made you thiuk he was some great personage, and when you listened to him talk you knew at once that his was a greater intellect than any otl/br in the assembly, no matter of whom it was composed. Mr. Hadmoro and Con stance had a profound admiration for each other and never willingly missed an opportunity to enjoy each other's company. I knew he would accept my invitation, and when ho did so I felt a little toui li of conscience. A person of my sagacity would lui’dly Lo expected to invite a man like Mr. Kuduiore into a company of girls like Mar, Alice and Cairo!]. Indeed I did not know what •xcusc I should make to their muminus, but in spite of the past record of Lau- ran c Rudmorc, something must be dune to save Charlie from Ins pending fate. Constance, of course, was above re-' prom h, no mutter whose record was in question. The morning that Mr. Itadmore ar rived Charlie and Constance had gone 1 over to a neighboring siieep farm to get a pet lamb for her. It seemed to me that she might have found Charlie lamb enough, if her taste was for pets of that sort. Hhe looked very witching with tho white little bit of a thing cuddled in her urnis against a trim black gown and the suuiisiiiue on her yellow hair, j To hear her laugh you would not have believed that she could not sing a note or that she was an hour over 20. Mr. Kaduiore was a surprise to her, and she gave mo a look that said very plainly, “Oh, I understand t” But she deter mined to keep Charlie at heck and call. Yet even for the pleasure of spiting me she could not keep to her resolution and devote her time to him. The fascina tion Mr. Hadmoro possessed for her was too great, and he had not been there two dais till I saw with delight that Charlie was left to hia own devices. The dear boy was not very good na- tured over it. Ho suspected my maneu ver and at once turned to Alfred for sympathy. I suppose they had a mutual cause against Mr. Hadmore, and for that reason they were drawn toward each other. At any rate, Charlie refrained from giving me any confidences. Conse quently much that I relate from this on is gathered from Alfred’s observa tion and subsequent confidences. Alfred is not one of those perfect husbands that for the most part belong to widows; but, thank fortune, he will sooner or later tell his wife all matters of inter est that come to his knowledge. Constance and Mr. Hadmore glided easily into their familiar relations, and Charlie showed all his early bringing up by becoming at once the most uninter esting of farmers. Laurance Hadmore used to look at him with those quizzical gray eyes and smile knowingly. One day ho said to Constance, “It’s a pity that country boy has fallen in love with you.” “Indeed you compliment mo, but your surmise is not cor.ect. ” Then Mr. Itadmore assumed his ju dicial air and said, "You would not try to tell me that you are not cognizant of an affair of this nature, with all your experience?” “The hoy has hi too bashful to pay attention to any one else, and I have helped him out. I have not done a bit of mischief. I may have bothered Mae a little, as she wants to marry him to one or tho ether of the girls.” “And you have made that an impos sibility for him.” “Well, no, though I fancy he is not in love with either of them.” “Which hj would bo had you allow ed him.” “Mr. Hadmore, you are exasperat ing.” “No. I am exasperated.” “By me?” “Thou sayest it. Tho boy has th* making of a fine fellow, but bis expe rience with you will ruin him.” “Nonsense. The little attention I have shown him will give him an in sight into woman’s ways, and it will be easier for him to succeed when ho really falls in love. ” “Ho will not fall in lovo again.” “Hash statement. Ho is but 22.” “Men never love but once.” “Yon aro increasing in rashness. ‘Who most has lovod tho host can love again.’ " “That applies only to women. A woman’s first love affair paves the way for all others. Its only value to her is by way of experience and to sentimen talize over, like her first ball.” “ You dure assert that men have but one love?” “Only one in which they take the leading role. In all others the woman leads. That is, they do tho loving, and men delight in the flattery of being loved. That’s why men marry. ” “Do they never marry for love?” “Tho instances aro rare. Every story turns out that way, but in real life it takes a detective to find such a case.” “And tho result when they do?” “You must draw on your most rose colored imagination.” “You intend I should accept this as your candid observation?” “As the truth itself. I speak as a man who knows, aud I respect your intellect too highly to try to deceive you.” “Well,” she said, rising, with a pretty gesture of conviction, “I believe 1 11 marry Charlie, and then I’ll know as much about it as you do.” He was on his feet us if aided by eleo* tricity. “No, you will not, ” and then bo qualified his statement, “because in ten years you will have outgrown biw. He is still in infancy, while yon are 82 years old.” “Do you know,” she smiled sweetly, “that my mother is G7 years old and a few weeks ago an insurance agent want ed to write her a policy at 42?” “And you expect to discount your age 25 years likewise?” “Not just yet, but I never mean to be any older than I wish, and a love such as you have hinted at ought to prove an elixir of youth.” She married Charlie before the win ter season commenced, and I have the bitter certainty that Constance Merrick will get to spend all that money with out availing herself in the slightest of my management. As to Mae, Charlie says if he and his wife want music they can enjoy it at the Grand Opera. Well, of course they can afford it.—E. D. Uarloch in Omaha World-Herald. Beady for Duty. J. W. Scherer, in his “Daily Life During tho Indian Mutiny,” says that when the rains fell, bringing with them fever and cholera, tho horrors of the campaign were, of course, redoubled When tho outbreak caino, some men, bolding isolated positions until the last moment of safety, were compelled to flee through almost incredible difficul ties and dangers. One man, Mowbray Thomson, when interrogated about the hardships he had undergone, spoke of them with tho ut most simplicity, as if they were ordi nary circumstances, to bo looked for in “the day’s work” of life. “Some years after a London banker, sitting next me at dinner, began talk ing about Thomson, and asked me if I bud met him. 1 told him that I had seen him every day for a year or two. “ ‘Wdl,’ said ho, ‘I met him once in London, «iud I shall never forget an an swer ho made to a quo .tion of mine. ’ “ ‘What was the question?’ “I a^ked him, ‘When you got once more among your countrymen, and tho wholo terrible thing was over, what on earth was tho first thing you did? 1 " ‘Did?’ cried bo. ‘Why, I went and reported myself as present and ready for dutv!’ “ Lust full I sprained my left hip while )ih(idling some heavy boxes.
